Om boendet

Edgartown Captain's Home - Lyx - Plats "en gÄng i livet upplevelse" 5 *

Captain Morse House Àr en av Edgartowns frÀmsta hem. Det byggdes av kapten John O. Morse 1840. Morse var en av de mest framgÄngsrika valfÄngstkaptenens epoker. Det Àr en stor och stor hem byggd i den grekiska revivalstilen. Captain Morse House har ett utmÀrkt lÀge nÀra Edgartowns shopping och en kort promenad till fyra strÀnder och North Wharf och stadens upptagna hamn.

BOENDE
Vi kan stÀlla in huset för att rymma flera olika grupper. FrÄn ett nÄdigt hem som vÀrd en liten familj till sin maximala konfiguration dÀr vi kan rymma upp till 25 personer i 12 sovrum. Det finns 20 bÀddar fördelade pÄ 12 sovrum och ett loft. Den första och andra vÄningen har de bÀsta sovrummen. Det finns 7 fulla bad och en utedusch. Det finns ocksÄ tvÄ fullt utrustade kök, tvÄ stora matsalar och tvÄ stora vardagsrum.

Vattenutsikt - ligger du pÄ vattnet
Det finns utsikt över Edgartown hamnen frÄn huset och frÄn bÄda vÄra frÀmre verandor. Vi Àr bara 200 meter ner Morse Street (60 m) till The North Wharf Àr. The North Wharf Àr ett centrum för lansering, fiske, dockning, förtöjning och bÄtliv. Kapten Morse brukade hÄlla sina bÄtar pÄ The North Wharf sÄ det Àr verkligen som att ha din egen brygga! En morgonpromenad ner till kajen Àr ett bra sÀtt att börja dagen. Se vÄr Waterfront Page.

INTERIORGÅNG HÄR
Hemmet Ă€r spredt över tre vĂ„ningar och erbjuder en mĂ€ngd olika offentliga rum och privata sovrum. Framsidan av första vĂ„ningen har ett stort formellt vardagsrum med dubbla portaler till verandaen. Bredvid det Ă€r den frĂ€mre entrĂ©vïżœïżœg som har en hĂ€rlig spiraltrappa byggd av lokala skeppsvarv. DĂ€refter kommer mediarummet som fördubblas som ett extra sovrum och sedan en formell matsal och gourmetkök. NĂ€r du gĂ„r framför köket gĂ„r du in i baksidan av huset med ett stort vardagsrum och matplats, ett privat badrum och ett fullt utrustat kök. Detta Ă€r ett utmĂ€rkt informellt utrymme för mer avslappnade möten.

Den andra vÄningen börjar med en magnifik veranda som kan nÄs frÄn antingen sovrummet eller det andra stora sovrummet. HÀrifrÄn till baksidan av huset finns ytterligare 5 sovrum och 4 badrum. Dessa Àr alla utformade pÄ ett sÀtt som du inte kommer att se i andra hus byggt senare. Det Àr en del av charmen i huset.

PÄ tredje vÄningen finns ytterligare fyra sovrum. Det hÀr Àr den enklaste delen av huset och var dÀr tjÀnarna brukade bo. Tillbaka pÄ 1800-talet tog det en liten armé att köra huset. Inte alla skulle faktiskt kunna leva i huset. Vissa bodde pÄ Chappaquiddick Island och tog fÀrjan som drivs av kapten Morse fader Uriah.

Som du kanske kan gissa Àr vi specialiserade pÄ stora familjer, familjeÄterförening, bröllop, Ärsdagar och alla evenemang dÀr mÀnniskor vill njuta av varandras företag utan att andra distraherar sig. Stora grupper boka regelbundet vÄrt hem för sin charm, komfort och unika karaktÀr och nÄd. Med det sagt sÀger vÄr lÄnga tid upprepade hyresgÀster brukar vara mindre familjer pÄ 6 eller sÄ. De bjuder sedan in vÀnner att besöka och anvÀnda de stora utrymmena för underhÄllande. I min ungdom bodde jag i huset med min bror och förÀldrar. Det verkar ovanligt nu men dÄ tog vi det sjÀlvklart och hjÀlpte vÄr pappa till underhÄll och grÀsmatta.

BEKVÄMLIGHETER
Vi Àr fullt utrustade med stort sett allt du kan tÀnka dig. Höjdpunkter Àr fulla sÀngklÀder, tvÄ nöjescenter, fullt hus WiFi, 4 zon HVAC, hiss och gratis cyklar. Klicka pÄ rubriken ovan för en fullstÀndig lista.

UTOMHUS
De dubbla frÀmre verandaerna Àr inramade av 10 doriska kolonner och möter hamnen. De skapar en idealisk plats att tillbringa dagen. Den stora bakgÄrden och trÀdgÄrden erbjuder en privat oas frÄn rörelsen i en vingÄrdssommar. GÄrden pryds av tre höga och magnifika Linden trÀd.

PÄ North Water Street sidan av huset finns tvÄ rymliga verandor med utsikt över Edgartown Harbor. Edgartowns North Wharf ligger nedanför huset i slutet av Morse Street. Det Àr ett bra stÀlle att gÄ och njuta av den livliga vattnet eller kanske lite fiske. Vi har en blygsam uppfart som kan rymma 4 bilar som leder tillbaka till bakgÄrden. VÄr gÄrd Àr en av de rymligaste och sÀkraste i stan och har en tegelstenad uteplats med plats för 20 med en mycket trevlig grill. Verktygsstationen rymmer gratis cyklar, solstolar och grÀsmatcher.

VAR ÄR HUSET
Vi Àr pÄ östra sidan av ön Marthas vingÄrd i den historiska staden Edgartown. Huset ligger tre kvarter norrut frÄn huvudgatan i Edgartown pÄ Morse Street. Karta

Family summer getaway

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay! The home is huge and well stocked with everything one could need. It feels like a step back in time and yet has all the modern necessities. We loved exploring the many bedrooms on 3 levels! We enjoyed family dinners indoors and out and evening game nights in the front living room. We could walk to the beach and restaurants easily. It was a perfect week!

Fantastic Family Reunion

We had 3 generations of our family staying in the house over an Oct. holiday weekend- 14 adults/9 children and it was absolutely perfect! The location is superb, the spaces inside were great for small gatherings and conversations, and the children loved playing hide and seek in this grand old house. The host was most accommodating and we could not have asked for a better stay! HIGHLY recommend!

Edgartown's Finest

I can’t imagine a more perfect setting for extended family to stay for a Martha’s Vineyard wedding. The location is ideal-- only a few minutes walk to all the Edgartown shops and restaurants and the waterfront. The historic house is lovingly maintained, full of charm and easily handled our crowd of sixteen. The bikes were a nice plus and we got good use out of them. Other members of the wedding party who were regular visitors to the Vineyard were eager to come over and get a tour —it is that kind of a house!!!

Beautiful accomodations in a fabulous location.

The Captain Morse House is a lovingly restored home in a fabulous location. The house mixes historic charm with beautifully updated amenities including kitchens & bathrooms. All of the rooms are spacious and comfortable for gathering. The kitchens are fully-equipped including outdoor gas grills. The backyard is beautiful with a lush lawn, flowerbeds and outdoor dining tables. I rented both wings for a large family gathering. The accommodations were so comfortable and in good order that it made the weekend effortless and enjoyable for everyone. Having the house walking distance to town was an added bonus. This was my first time renting on MV and I will definitely return to the Captain Morse House.

Wonderful! Didn't want to leave.

We had a great time, nobody wanted to leave! Superb location for all things in Edgartown, walking or biking distance to most activities. The yard was great for kids and the property worked very well for large families like ours, who included 24 people. Every amenity was provided that one could hope for. Martha's vineyard is a wonderful vacation destination, there are so many options for every type of interest. We happened to come during the 4th of July, and it was perfect. The parade went right past the house and we could all watch from the spacious front porch, and the fireworks were seen from the second story balcony. Thanks for allowing us to use your beautiful home for our annual vacation.

The house is elegant and well appointed and will accommodate a lot of guests.

The ship captain’s house is elegant and welcoming if you appreciate an atmosphere of yesteryear. It is like staying in your grandmother’s house just as she left it, except she fortunately had modern beds and an up to date, well stocked kitchen, actually 2 kitchens. We love that atmosphere and our children do as well, so everyone was happy. We were there in Winter and heating was satisfactory, so we cannot speak to Summer conditions. The house is lovely and charming and the only short coming was parking. The driveway can take 2 cars, one behind the other, which presents an inconvenience so the second car we had parked on the street. Fortunately in 2 weeks in December it never got a parking ticket for overnight parking which the sign says is prohibited. Old New England village not designed to accommodate automobiles. On that subject walking to the commercial center of Edgartown for restaurants and shops is likewise charming day and evening. Our family walked to restaurants, shops and the movie theater. How old fashioned, nice and healthful.

Beyond expectations

I stayed at the Captain Morse House Thanksgiving week with my entire family--11 adults and four children. We had very high hopes for a great weekend and they were far exceeded. The CMH is very roomy with plenty of bathrooms. It is in a wonderful location in Edgartown--beach/shops/pubs /restaurants all within easy walking distance. The house is very roomy and has a number of areas to relax or watch TV. Wifi is excellent. The two kitchens are incredibly well supplied. We cooked Thanksgiving dinner without any problem. I can't think of anything that we lacked. On top of it all, Platt was extremely easy to deal with and ultra-responsive to any questions that we had. My family is ready to book CMH again. I recommend without any reservation.

Winter on the vineyard

My family and I go to the vineyard every winter, and it’s always a great time. We usually stay at hotels but we really wanted to be together this time. We found the Captain Morse house and I could not be more thankful! Our weekend was everything we’d thought it would be and more. This house extremely homey and comfortable! We never wanted to leave! There were great paths for our annual night walk (yes, we walk in winter 😅) we were in walking distance to some amazing coffee shops and diners, and the kids had a ball during our dance party with all the cousins, aunts, and uncles! Above all I have to say, the management was the best part! You can stay at a place that has everything you need and more, but if the people running it aren’t accommodating or lack communication, you’d never want to go there again! This team went above and beyond to make sure we had everything we needed and we were comfortable! They responded to a late night request as well which was very impressive! Safe to say
. We will be back next February! Thank you so much!!! The Crafts Family

Fabulous in all regards

We'd not hesitate for a moment before returning. Our group was adult siblings, spouses, and young children. The house (we had both wings) was perfect for us. There was space to spread out--adults could be in the front living rooms while kids enjoyed feeling independent in the back. Two kitchens avoided any crunches of space. Bedrooms galore provided great flexibility. A short walk to Lighthouse Beach or to town provided perfect outings. And, used to living ourselves in a house of a similar era (early 1800s) with English antiques accented by China Trade pieces, we felt perfectly at home. The house clearly has a force field around it that avoids "beach house kitsch." It's just charming. And three big cheers for the Heidi, the manager. On top of providing a wonderful welcome when we arrived, she hit true heroics at 10:45am on New Year's Day when she answered our call on the first ring and arrived at the house within minutes and jumped our car, the battery of which had died, in time to make our boat off-island. That is truly above and beyond.

Beautiful in an amazing location

The Captain Morse House's location made out stay last year worth it! Not only is it walking distance from all the amazing restaurants and shops but it is also large enough to house a full troop of people while still feeling as if you have enough space and not on top of each other. Norm was an amazing host so helpful and very gracious on check in and check out. We truly had the best experience here and would recommend it to anyone!

70th Birthday Party

We hosted a 70th Birthday Party. We invited friends and family to spend the weekend with us to celebrate this milestone. Everyone loved the property. It had everything we needed; plenty of places to gather, eat and walking distance to downtown Edgartown. It was March so it was cold and windy. The house has so much character, history and lovely little extras you have to experience. A wonderful experience.

Best Family Vacation Ever!

We stayed at the Captain Morse House for a large family celebration (10 adults and 3 kiddos) and had the most lovely stay! The house is situated perfectly between cute shops in downtown Edgartown and the idyllic lighthouse. We loved taking strolls for a morning pastry, followed by lunch at the house and a meander to the beach to frolic in the ocean. The house also has bicycles, which we took out to explore other parts of the island. The Captain’s house was a perfect place to stay -- we got to hang out all under one roof, eat meals together, watch the Warriors together etc. All while having enough space for everyone to feel comfortable and enough rooms to nestle in by one’s self if needed. There are two kitchens (fully equipped with all sorts of cooking utensils, platters, dishes, anything you could want ) -- our family used the smaller kitchen for breakfast preparation and the large kitchen for epic dinner preparations. As for the sleeping quarters, the bedrooms are cozy and flooded with light. Two of the upstairs bedrooms connect to a gorgeous porch which is great for a nice view and people watching. There is also a downstairs porch that was perfect for cocktails and many games of chess. The backyard outdoor space was beautiful -- the tables outside were great for a delightful outdoor lunch while the kids ran around on the lawn nearby. The owners are also incredibly kind and generous and made our stay at Capt. Morse’s house very special, smooth and sublime! We cannot wait to visit again. June 10, 2019

The Captain Morse House has been in our family since my father purchased it in 1955. I spent my summers at the house until I graduated from Tufts University. In 1973 I started Island Sports, a boat rigging and windsurfing shop. I expanded it to Newport, RI, in 1979 and ran it there until 2007, when we sold it. In 2008 I entered the vacation business and converted the Captain Morse House into a successful vacation rental. Since 2008 we have rented the home to over 200 families and groups.

Our most recent project is Vacation Rental MV. This full-service vacation management business is designed to assist busy homeowners with listing and managing their on-island rental properties. 2021 will be our second season in business.

In the winter, my wife and I live in Florida. Each spring, we drive up to the island, where we open up the house and prepare it for the season. We spend about a month doing this and then travel to Oregon, where we spend the summer windsurfing, kitesurfing, and enjoying all the Northwest offers. In the fall, we return to the island, help close the house, and prepare it for winter. There are always jobs to do on a house this large, allowing us more hands-on time. We travel back down to Florida in the late fall with the geese. I have built several homes and enjoy the challenge of maintaining this old house and of creating wonderful living spaces suitable for large or small numbers of guests.

Due to my long time on the island. I can help you plan your vacation. I can provide you with the best possible service if we communicate via telephone or email. Our guests aren't clients so much; they are friends assisting us in maintaining the property and keeping it in our family for future generations. The vacation rental business has allowed our family to continue to own the house and to share it with other people who love the island and the unique architecture and heritage of this wonderful building.

Varför vÀrden valde detta boende

My father often visited Edgartown on his father's sailboat, the Gertrude. In 1955 my parents purchased the Captain Morse House in order to have a summer home to raise their growing family. Back in 1955 Edgartown was still a failed whaling town without the top reputation it now enjoys. Shortly after the purchase they added a separate kitchen and changed the house so that they could divide it into wings. This allowed them to rent them out separately. We have kept this configuration and you can still rent out the home Complete or as an East Wing or as a West Wing.

and I then spent every summer there until I moved to Newport Rhode Island in 1979. I continued to visit my parents each summer until 2007. I now spend as much time as I can on the island attending to the house and maintaining it. When it was built in 1840 it was perhaps the best home in Edgartown. Now movie stars and celebrities have built larger homes but non with the style and class of the Captain Morse House.

Vad som gör detta boende unikt

There are lots of modern and redone houses around but there are very few of these homes. Built in 1840 and filled with charm and character you will be enthralled by the beauty and simplicity of the home and it's surroundings.

Our guests say this is the perfect location. You are close to town and right up from the harbor. Park the car for the week or leave it on the mainland. Our location allows for freedom from car pooling and shuttles. Everything is literally a walk away. We love walking down Morse Street to the boatyard to see what's happening on the waterfront and to talk to the boaters and fisherman.
The large open home offers privacy and retreat no matter how many people fill the house.
The large backyard can serve as a base for quiet afternoons as well as an evening party.
The restaurants and shops are all an easy walk away but it is the waterfront that is the best part of living at the Captain Morse House. After all - it is a whaling Captain's home
